SIG 2025 SA Thread

Wanted to put this out there. SIG (not discussing quant) has 2025 SA roles in buy-side research, sell-side research, macro, growth equity. Has anyone gotten the OA, interviewed, or have insight from past years about any of the above roles?

Does anyone know if the OA is selective or if it means you are passed a screen? The job description said they are not sponsoring but I applied anyway and want to know if it's worth practicing and doing the OA as I'm on vacation and it's pretty suboptimal timing.

 

It just means u passed the screen- but if you do well on the OA (idk the threshold) you will get a phone interview 100%, its not too hard, time is the only hard part- basic dice/prob questions you can figure out even w no stats experience & general ipo/options knowledge
